This invention relates to. means for vending liquids -andYV particularly to coin controlled means for withdrawing a lixed amount of a liquid from a source of supply 5 and placing that amount in a container ready for consumption. I

The primary object of the invention comprises the providing of la self-contained unit which is stocked with a supply of cups or containers held in a sanitary manner and a supply of some liquid drink whereby, upon inserting a suitable. coin intothe unit, acup maybe discharged from the supply, and made accessible from the outside of the unit and a definite amount of the liquid then poured into the cup, .and the unit automatically prepare itself for the next serving o f a drink upon the insertion of the second coin. Many other objects will become apparent by the description of the invention in reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. 1, is a frontelevation of the vending machine; Fig. 2, a fragmentary side elevation of the machine on an enlarged scale; Fig. 3, a fragmentary side elevation of the principal operatingmechanism;

Like characters of reference' indicate likeparts throughout the several views in the drawings.

I form a` housing 15 mounted preferably on the three legs 16,'17 and 18 so as to prevent rocking when standing on uneven floors. At one side, within the housing 15, I mount a cup holder 19 on-which rest a plurality of vertically nestd'cups 20 within a glass en- 1929. Serial No. 354,092.

closing tube 21. Now the holder 19 contains a slide 22, Fig. 7, which, when moved by the arm 23 travelling toward the holder 19, Figs.

.2, 3 and 4, permits a single cup 20.to drop through the holder and be caught `in an upright position in the bracket 24, Fig. 4, whichA bracket is Vmounted withinthe box 25 secured to the back s ide of the front wall of the housing 15. A door 26 opens downwardly to permit access to within the box 25 from 60 the front side of the housing. The exact mechanism in the holder 19 is not here shown in detail since itsl structure is well known to those versed in the art and not here constituting invention.

In the back part'of the housing 15 is formed a refrigerator compartment 27, Figs. 1, 2, and 3, and a receptacle 28 is mounted therein over which a bottle 29 containing the liquid to be dispensed 'isinverted sothatthe 70 neck of the bottlewill extend down into the vessel. whereby a fixed level of the liquid will be maintained inthe receptacle by reason of the liquid flowing from the bottle until a vacuum is produced withinfthe bottle v75 and a balance is reached against the atmospheric pressure lon the surface of the liquid in the receptacle. v v l The refrigerator compartment 27, carried on an intermediate ioor 30. s0

Mounted on this floor 30 between the front of the compartment 27 andthe front of the housing 15 is a standard 31 in the'upper end of which is revolvably carried the horizontally ldisposed rocker shaft 32, Figs. 2 and 3, 85

the shaft being supported at its rear end vin the standard. This shaft 32 is hollow, andv the rod 33nslidingly asses through theshaft 32 to extend'by its orward end on through the housing wall and beyond to carry thereon l "conne'cts axially with the plunger rod 35V which in turn passes rearwardly throng? a stuing box-.into the cylinder l36 and is. therein to the plunger 37 The cylinder 36-has an enlargement 38 at its upper rear end to form a by-pass around over the plunger 37, and a pipe 39 leads from4 this enlargement 38 and discharges into the 100 v 'receptacle 28 above the liquid level therein,

` ing out forwardly from the plate to have a compression spring 46 carried between the washer 47 and the packing nut 48 to compressively hold the cone 44 in contact with the wall of the boring. This cone 44 has a central horizontal passage 49 entering from its rear face, and this passage v49 is intercepted by a transverse passage 50 bored through from the outside wall ofthe cone. l

A discharge pipe 51 has one end fitted into a port 52 bored through the plate 42 into the conical boring therein at a distance around from the discharge opening of the passage 41. The pipe 51 leads from the port 52 around and into the box 25 and terminates by an 'end properly directed to discharge into a" cup 20- that may be held in the bracket 24.

"Referring to Figs. 3 and 6. the cone 44 is here positioned'to permit liquid to flow from the receptacle through the pipe 40, the vertical passage 41` the horizontal passage 49, and

` thence upwardly through a pasageway 53 in the block 43 into the cylinder 36 in front of the plunger 37, the plunger 37 being normally positioned at the rear of the cylinder whereby the incoming liquid will force air on up and out the pipe 3 9. A

The rocker shaft 32 is cut through longitudinally along one side to form a slot opening 57 (Fig. 4) onto the rod 33 therein. An arm 54 extends upwardly from the rear end of the rocker shaft 32 and is pulled over toward the side of the housing where the cup holder 19 is located by a spring 55. On the back face of the arm 54 is fixed a box 55 in which a ribbon spring 56 is mountedand held by one end. The other end of the spring 5 6 is carried around and fixed to the rod 33 over the slot 57 by the cap screw 58, Fig. v3. To prevent premature movement ofthe rod 33 with its aiiixed parts to thev rear, a latch 59 is pivoted to the forward side of the standard 31, Figs.

, 3 and 5, to drop by gravity down into contact with the rockershaft 32 over the slot 57 in front of the head of the cap screw 58 so that forward movement of the rod 33 is thereby prevented bythe head striking the 'back face i of the latch. The forward side of the latch 59 is formed to have an upturned lip 60. y

' A pin 61 is secured in the rod 33 to project outwardly through the slot 57 in the rocke'r shaft 32 and is located forwardly of the latch 59. By reason of this pin 61 projecting through the slot 57 rotation of the handle 34 its lower end to carry the two stop ins 63 and l 64 in spaced apart relation. A ever 65 is pivoted to the lever 62 near its upper end and hangs downwardly in .sliding contact over the lever 62 to have its lower end confined to movement between the two pins 63 and 64. A lever 66 is fixed to the stem 45 of the cone 44, and the outer end of the lever 66 is interconnected with the lower end of the lever 65 by the link 67.

A post 68 lixed'onthe front wall of the housing 15, Fig. 3, 'carries a lever 69 pivotally thereon. The lever 69 has an upper arm extending normally verticallyfrom the post 68 and has an adjustable screw 70 transversely passed through its upper end to have the screw substantially in contact with' the end of `the arm 23. The lever 69 also has a lower arm which is bent around to pass over the rocker shaft 32 and rest on a cam 71 fixed on the rocker shaft in such a manner that rocking of the shaft will rock the lever 69 to cause it to push on the arm 23.

At the extreme forward end of the rocker shaft- 32 is van ar'm 72 normally directed upwardly and -over toward the box'25. To the under side of the arm 72 is pivotally secured a pawl 73 which has its upper end carried toward the front wall of the housing 15 by reason of thespring 74 pulling back on the lower end. the spring having its rear end secured to the forward side of the cam 71.

A lug 75 is fixed on the housing wall in the path of the pawl 73 and has an inclined face toward the pawl so'that should the rockerv shaft 32 be rotated the pawl 73 may slide up over the lug 75 and drop down on the opposite side to prevent opposite rotation of the shaft 32 until the pawl 73 may be released from along a side of the lug. The lower end of the pawl 73 extends downwardly and around behind the arm 72vand terminates just over the slot 57 in the shaft 32.

The arm 76 extends from the extreme forward@ end of the shaft 32 away from the arm 72 but at an angle thereto andhas a slotted outer end into which is entered a pin 77 which is fixed in a vertically sliding carriage l7 8 normally pulled upwardly by the spring 79. A coin chute 80 leads from a coin slot 81 downwardly along the carriage 78 to discharge into aremovable coin box 82 locked into position .at the under side of the chute.

On the side of the chute 80 toward the cartravel of the forward arm 72, and in turn controls the upward travel of the carriage 78 by reason of the interlocking pin 77. The -spring 79 cooperates with the spring 55 vin maintaining the position of the parts as described. 1

' Just above the shoulder 85 is a notch 87 into' which the awl 83 would normally drop should the han le 34 be turned in an attempt to rock the shaft 32,. and since the carriage 78 could not then be moved downwardly any farther, rotation of the handle 34 is prevented. y

Should a coin 88, Fig. 8, be dropped down the chute 80, the coin 88 will be sto ped near the lower end of the chute by t e'bar 89 which projects into the chute just far enough l tostop a coin of the proper size.

This bar 89 is slidingly uided to be moved toward and awa from t e chute by' .means of a pin 90 exten ing from the yside of the bar 89 into .the slotted lowerv end of the pawl 83. With the coin 88 against the bar 89, the pawl 83 may not rock lnto engagement with the notch 87 so that the handle 34 may' then be turned to revolve the shaft 32 and carry the clairria e 78 -downwardly and the carriage t en shaft. As the carriage 78 is pulled downwardly by the arm 76, the upper end of the pawl 83 comes into' contact with the outwardly and upwardl slopin face on the underside of the shou der 91 w ich is formed tocarry the pawl 83 outwardly so as to move the bar 89 toward the carriage and away from the coin 88 to permit the coin to drop past the bar and into the coin box. A stop 92 onthe forward wall of the housing in the path of the arm 72 limits the rotation of the shaft 32 in a clockwise direction.

Ice may be laced in the compartment 27 and around t e receptacle 28 to keep the liquid at the desired temperature, and water from the ice maybe drained through the \va1ve 93 down into the lower compartment 94v and out the'drain-pipe 95. A door ,96 gives access to the lower compartment through which empty cups may be thrown into t e compartment 94.

Fromy the above description it is to be seen that the mechanism is completely locked against operation` until a coin is inserted through the slot 8 1 since, the handle 34 may not be pulled. outwardly by reason of the head of the screw 58 strikin thev latch 59, and the handlemay not be ro ated by reason of the arm 76 beinheld through ythel pin 77 on the carri e 78 'y vthe pawl 83 dropping into the note A85 upon the slightest movement'of the handle 4 Another safeguard is provided in the form of the horizontallysliding rod 97. Figs. v2. 1.v

lines, in which vertical oes not interfere with rotation of the as follows.

slot 81 and it rolls down the chute 80 until -hausted so that liquid will not be discharged from the pipe 51 when there is no cup to receive it. i

A rod 98 is rotatively passed through the holder 19 and has an arm 99 fixed thereto to swing from a horizontally disposed position as indicated by'dash lines in Fig. 7, to a vertical position as there shown in solid osition, cups 20 may slide therepast and at tii a flag 100 which is held in a horizontal position lwhen the arm 99 is held vertically. The other end-of the rod 98 has its end bent around horizontally forwardly to form a bearing surface against which the upper end of the rocker lever 101 may bear compressively by reason of the spring 102 tending to rock the lever thereagainst. The lower end of the lever 101 is pivotally connected to the rod 97.

-Now when the supply of cups becomes so low as to permit the arm 99 to drop over by reason of the torsional pull on the rod 98 of the horizontally extending flag 100, the benty end of the' rod 98 is rocked away from the lever 101, which action permits the spring 1 02 to rock the lever 101 to slide the rod 97 e same time prevent the arm 99 from dropping over to the horizontal position. On one end of the rod 98 1s to "drop down behind' the window 103;

When the cup supply' is replenished, the lever 102 is again reset'against the end of the rod 98. I

The operation of the machine is described A coin 88 is first inserted inthe it strikes the end of the bar89. The handle 34 is then turned as far as it will go to the right, during which rotation, the rocker shaft 32 has likewise been rocked by reason of the pin 61 being in the slot 57 until the lever 72 has been brou ht up against the stop 92 and the pawl 73 as dropped behind the lug 75 so as to revent the shaft 32 from being rocked bac wardly to its original position.l

while the shaft e2 is being rocked, the

carriage 78 is moved downwardly by the arm 76 carrying the pin 77 therealong, the coin 88 preventing movement of the v pawl 83 toward the carriage, until the rocker shaft 32 is brought to a stop, whereupon the coin 88'is drop ed from the chute 80 into the coin box 82, 'al as above described. During the rocking of the shaft 32, the lever 69 has been rocked by the cam 71 to press the arm 23 so as to cause a cup 20 to be dropped into the bracket 24. l

-The rocking cf the shaft 32 has also caused the arm .62 to have been rocked to carry the 1any pin 63 away -from the lever 65 and after an f interval of lmotion brought the pin 64 yup against the lever 65 to; have carried the lever ard 31, the head of the screw 58 is rocked.

away from its initial position in reference to the latch when the shaft 32 is rocked, and

the latch 59 is so formed, bthat when the shaft 32 has been rocked to its limit, the-head of the screw 58 is free to be moved forwardly with travel of the rod 33 Without interference from the latch, the head having been broughtl around from behind the l-ip of the latch. The use of the pins163 and 64 as above described permits a delayed action on the cone 44 in reference to rotation of the shaft 32, whereby a difference in amount of rotation may be secured therebetween.

The cup 20 having been deppsited in the bracket 24 under'the discharge end of the pipe 5l, the handle 34 is then pulled outwardly from the housing 15 to overcomethe pull of the spring 56 and cause the plunger 37 to force the liquid within the cylinder 36, to discharge through the passages 53, 49, 50, and port 52 into the pipe 51, and therefrom into the cu 20.

The resistance of the spring 56 against jerking of the handle 34, and the by-pass 38 around the plunger 37 prevents a sudden surge of liquid from the end of the pipe 51 so that from the beginning to the end of the pull on the handle, a stead flowing stream of liquid is maintained.. eferring to Fig. 3, the pin 61 ma be ositioned along the rod 33 in a num er o positions, such for example as at the position indicated by the dash lines 61', for the purpose of fixing the amount of liquid to be discharged from the cylinder 36. By moving the pin 61 forwardly, the amount discharged is decreased.

As' the handle 34 is pulled outwardly, the pin 61 is carried along by the rod 33 in the slot 57 until it presses against the lower end of the-pawl 73, to rock the pawl suiliciently to raise its outer end clear of the lu whereupon the pull of the spring 55, assisted by the pull of the spring79, at once throws the arm `54 around against the stopp86, rockand turning the cone 44 .back to ermit the cylinder 36 to be again filled with liquid.

It is te be noted that the pipe 51 extends -iipwardly from the plate 42 suiiciently to prevent liquid from owing over into the cup 20 before .the plunger 37 moves.

` The spring 56 slides the rod 33 along backwardly throu h the shaft v32 and accordingly carries t e plunger 37 backto the en`d of the cylinder 36, an liquid behind the plunger 37 beingdiscliI rged: -tliroughpthe pipe 39 until the bypass 38'is reached. The head of the screw 58 iscarried back by the rod 33 to press against the lip 60 of the latch 59, and the angle of the* lip 60 is such that v the l-ip is raised by passage of the head` thereunder to permit the latch 59 to be raised and then'dropped in front of the head when the rod 33 reaches its rear limit of travel. p

All of the mechanism is then in its original initial position ready to be reoperated.
